John Hancock LTC Rider Medical Impairment

The Long-Term Care (LTC) rider is underwritten based on morbidity risk rather than mortality risk and as a result, some proposed life insureds may not qualify for this rider even if they are Standard or better mortality risks. Also, some combinations of Standard impairments may require this rider to be declined.

The Long-Term Care rider cannot be issued at better ratings/rate classes than the life base policy assessment

For applications that include the Long-Term Care rider, HealthStyles may be applied to improve the base policy assessment, but the rider itself is not eligible for an upgrade

Risks with multiple impairments will be reviewed on an individual consideration basis

The Long-Term Care rider is available only if the life coverage is approved. It is NOT available:

When the mortality rating on the base policy is >175%

With a flat extra

To residents of foreign countries and also U.S. citizens traveling outside the U.S. for greater than 6 months per year (183 days)

The Long Term Care rider can be purchased in addition to a life insurance contact. This benefit allows an accelerated payout of a specific proportion of the proceeds of the life insurance as a reimbursement of long term care costs. Refer to the Long-Term Care Rider Technical Guide for additional information.
